PL/01316

 

Variation of Condition no. 2 of E/35763 (Reserved Matters permission for 2 dwellings granted on 28 September 2017, pursuant to outline planning permission E/30288 granted on 9 July 2014) to allow amended plans for the reduced scale to the dwelling at Plot 1, re-siting of dwelling at Plot 2 with revised parking arrangement and provision of south east boundary wall and treatment at Plots 1 & 2 at Tregarth, Square & Compass, Llangadog, SA19 9ND

PL/03083

 

Conversion of former school building into residential dwelling and the erection of 20 affordable dwellings on former school grounds, including all associated works at former Coedmor School, Cwmann, Lampeter, SA48 8ET

 

(NOTE: H. Rice (Senior Development Management Officer) having earlier declared an interest in this application, re-declared that interest, then left the meeting during its consideration).

 

Mr Dylan Lewis and Ms Sian Lloyd Roberts (objectors) and Mr Geraint Roberts (agent) were present during consideration of the application but were not afforded the opportunity to speak as the application was deferred.

 

 

3.3       S/34402 - Demolition of former Copperworks School and develop up to 9 new homes at former Copperworks Infants School, land at Morlan Terrace, Burry Port, SA16 0ND

 

The Committee was advised that the application had been withdrawn by the applicant (being Pembrey & Burry Port Town Council).

 

The Chair expressed his disappointment in the way that the applicant had conducted itself in this matter.  The Chair stated that the Committee had resolved to approve the application back in 2017, subject to conditions, and completion of a Section 106 agreement.  Since that time both the Planning Service and Legal Service had tried to complete the Section 106 agreement, but without any progress from the applicant, agent, or its solicitors.  

 

The Committee expressed disappointment that it was only after publication of the agenda that the Authority had been informed that the site had been sold wasting officers’ time and public resources.
